Choaspes Benjaminii
''Choaspes benjaminii'',Markku Savela's website on Lepidoptera - page on genu/ref>TOL web page on genu''Choaspes''/ref>also known as the Indian awlking or common awlking, is a species of butterfly in the family Hesperiidae. The species is named after Benjamin Delessert and was described on the basis of a specimen collected by Adolphe Delessert in the Nilgiris. Range The Indian awlking is found in Sri Lanka, India, northern Myanmar, Malaysia, Taiwan and Japan. In India, the Indian awlking ranges from the Palni Hills, Nilgiris and Kodagu in the south to northern and eastern India; from Kulu to Assam and eastwards onto Myanmar. The type locality is Nilgiris in South India. Status Not rare. Description The Indian awlking is 50 to 60 mm long. It is distinguished by the shining green under hindwing with black veins, orange area with black spots on the tornus. The male butterfly is shining indigo blue above. It has purplish hairs at the base which turn greenish with ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ochlodes Venata
''Ochlodes venatus'' (vive en el Parc Montenegre y corredor, en Cataluña) is a skipper butterfly species in the family Hesperiidae. The name was long used for the large skipper of Europe, but it actually refers to its Far Eastern sister species and the large skipper is now called ''O. sylvanus''. There is some dispute however about whether the large skipper should not better placed in ''O. venatus'' as a subspecies ''sylvanus'' or ''faunus''. An ICZN Opinion in 1944 noted that the genus name ''Ochlodes'' is masculine, so the correct epithet for this species is ''venatus''. However, many sources continue to list it as ''Ochlodes venata''. These two skippers are possibly sympatric in China. ''Ochlodes venatus'' occurs from there eastwards to Korea and Japan.

Ochlodes Sylvanus
The large skipper (''Ochlodes sylvanus'') is a butterfly of the family Hesperiidae. Taxonomy It was long known as '' Ochlodes venatus'', but this is a Far Eastern relative. There is still some dispute whether this species should be considered a distinct species or included in ''O. venatus'' as a subspecies. Under ICZN rules the specific name, originally proposed as ''Papilio sylvanus'', is invalid as a homonym (of the butterfly now called '' Anthene sylvanus''), but it has been conserved by an ICZN commission decision in 2000. Distribution and habitat This species occurs from Europe to the East Palearctic realm (northern Asia, China and Japan). In the British Isles it occurs in England, Wales, and south western Scotland. It can be found anywhere where wild grasses are allowed to grow tall. Hedgerows, woodland clearings and edges are favourites. Description ''Ochlodes sylvanus'' has a wingspan of 28–32 mm, which is similar in size to Chequered skipper. Although called "la ...

Heteropterus Morpheus
The large chequered skipper (''Heteropterus morpheus'') is a butterfly of the family Hesperiidae. It is the single member of the monotypic genus ''Heteropterus''. The species can be found in isolated populations in Europe and east across the Palearctic to Central Asia and Korea. It is endangered in the Netherlands. The length of the forewings is 15–18 mm. The butterfly is on the wing from June to August, depending on the location. The larvae feed on ''Eriophorum'', '' Poa annua'', '' Calamagrostis canescens'', ''Brachypodium'' and '' Molinia'' species (including '' Molinia coerulea''). As can be seen, the butterfly has a very distinctive and attractive underside but a drab upperside (which is rarely seen, as it usually settles with wings closed). This butterfly is very similar to the Chequered skipper, but they have their own attributes that allow them to be distinguished. The flight is just as distinctive and indeed provides immediate identification of the sp ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
